© FSBScreenshot: FSB Detains 106 Members of Ukrainian neo-Nazi Group 'M.K.U.'
In a notice published on Monday, the FSB said "investigative measures and actions were carried out in relation to 106 supporters of the ... MKU ... identified in 37 regions," while working alongside Russia's Ministry of Internal Affairs.
According to the statement, two detainees were suspected of preparing arms attacks on educational institutions. Meanwhile, three people said to be responsible for administering the organization's internet channels were also identified, having allegedly propagandized extremist ideology and called for violent actions on the instruction of the organization's founder, Yegor Krasnov.
In the Penza region, situated southeast of Moscow, and the Komi Republic located in northwestern Russia, the FSB said it had stopped two extremist groups affiliated with the MKU. Officials found smooth-bore and rifled civilian hunting weapons, ammunition, pneumatic guns, pistols and assault rifles, as well as tear gas canisters, during raids of their homes.
The MKU's activities, known as the Maniac's Cult of Murder, are aimed at inciting ethnic hatred and preparing to carry out extremism-related crimes.
Earlier this month, the FSB announced it had thwarted "intelligence and sabotage activities on the territory of three Russian regions" by Ukrainian agents. Two men, a father and son, confessed that they had been recruited by a member of the country's security service, who set them the task of finding information about sensitive sites in Russia in exchange for a $10,000 reward. The FSB also said it had detained an officer from Ukrainian Military Intelligence "sent to our country with the intent of committing a terrorist act."
A spokesman for the Security Service of Ukraine, Artem Dekhtyarenko, denounced the statement, claiming that the arrests were fake and that they "should be considered exclusively through the prism of hybrid war, in which information propaganda and the spread of fakes play an important role."
Told you so...
When they manage to blow up something to the scale of the twin towers or kidnap as many children as might get them expelled from their land or have access to hydrogen explosives or white Phosphorus I will take them more seriously than the other more dangerous and oppressive terrorists.....
Wow....that is all we need....kids with AK47s and a anti-semitic chip on their shoulders...not to mention nail guns and all the other super effective second hand arms sales stuff that most governments would laugh at....still scary...the maniac cult gang....
They sound like they are on par with the ANC...hunting knives trump areal bombing surely...
Imagine getting your hands on some hunting knives and tear gas....you could literally take on Russia...
